TODAY
A cloudy start to the day with low cloud and hill fog possible. As the day goes on we will begin to see the cloud break up to allow some sunny spells in central, northern and eastern parts, but also an increasing risk of hill and coastal fog in the west and south. Temperature 21-22°C but 23-25°C in the north and east, although around 18-20°C on windward coasts Wind west-southwest 12-22mph
TONIGHT
Low cloud and hill fog will likely spread across the island from the west for a time, leading to rather misty, murky conditions, perhaps even some dense patches of fog in places. There is also the risk of the odd light shower too, but many places remaining dry albeit rather damp. Temperature 15-16°C Wind west-southwest 4-9mph becoming variable 0-3mph after midnight
Rainfall less than 1mm with localised rainfall possible
TOMORROW
After a rather cloudy and perhaps misty start, we will see the cloud and mist begin to break up to give some fine, sunny spells for a time, but cloud will again increase from the south during the afternoon as an area of thundery showers drift northwards to the east of the area, however it does seem possible that the far western edge of those showers may clip the island through the evening and into the night, but there is significant uncertainty with this at the moment. Temperature 23-26°C but closer to 20-21°C on windward coasts Wind light and variable 0-3mph becoming west-southwest 8-16mph during the evening
